True Love Waits

Chapter 1225 Watching The Night Sky

Before Matthew and Erica entered the private room, two people walked over to them, heading in the opposite direction.

Erica didn't notice anyone special as she was taking in the luxurious decor. A man in a green suit greeted them. "Mr. Huo, Erica, what a coincidence!"

It was Watkins and his friend.

Erica was surprised to see Watkins there. She smiled happily and said, "Hi, Watkins. I didn't expect to see you here!"

Meanwhile, Matthew pulled her closer to him.

The four stood face to face and greeted each other cordially.

Matthew glanced at Watkins indifferently and just nodded at him.

But Erica was a great deal friendlier. She continued to chat with Watkins. "You also here for dinner?"

Remembering the last time they met up, Watkins put his hand in his pocket. He tried to shake hands with Matthew on that last occasion, and the rich young man turned him down. Watkins nodded at Erica. "Yeah. We got here earlier. We're done now! I thought we'd order some drinks. Have you eaten yet?"

"No, we just got here!"

"Then you go ahead. We're in the private club upstairs. You and Mr. Huo are welcome to join us." Watkins didn't dare look at Matthew, but stared at Erica.

This would have been a great opportunity to capture the night sky on film. If she didn't have the right equipment, it wouldn't turn out nearly as well as she hoped. Ah well, she could always adjust the shutter speed. 20 seconds should do it. Matthew didn't want to disappoint her. With a smile altering the corners of his mouth, he said,

She was afraid this meal might cost everything she had and then some. Matthew didn't move. "Don't worry. The drinks can wait. Let's have dinner first." He was afraid that after a couple of glasses of red wine on an empty stomach, she would get drunk. He remembered what happened the last time she got drunk. It was burned into his brain. If she got drunk this time, Erica might wave at the night sky and said, "Matthew, look! This is the night sky I drew for you!" He really would rather have a romantic
